Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Edgebrook
Running cool, economic stress reads 1.1/10. On the high side, local political climate reads 7.8/10. It sits 1.1 points below the Cook County average of 6.1.
Court records carry 71 eviction filings across 13 observed years. Food insecurity runs 9.8% against 17.8% nationally.
Inability to pay a utility bill runs 4.0% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. Filings peaked in 2011 at 13.8% of renter households. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground B ("Still Desirable"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today.
In a typical year about 8.1% of renter households face a filing. Nationally it ranks #32,842 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.
Only 1% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 4.4/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.
Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the least pressured. Poverty sits at 4%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
All figures here are ACS 5-year estimates for this tract, refreshed as the underlying releases land.
